Welcome to the Forum FAQ thread. You're here for one of several reasons, be it you have a question that needs answering, somebody linked you to here because you went ahead and asked a question that was in this thread anyway, or you have a fetish for FAQ lists. If I've missed any frequently asked questions, please post them in here and I'll add them to this post.

Q: I'm in the Newbie group! How do I get into the Member group?

A: Make 1 posts that count towards your post count and you're automatically put into the Members group. (Note that certain forum sections, such as the SDRPG sections and Forum Games, don't contribute to your post count. These sections will have a note in their description.)

Q: What is the Veteran group? How do I get into it?

A: The Veteran group is an exclusive group of members who have been here for a long time (usually around a year or more) and have posting a bunch, verbal or otherwise, given to them. Veterans have a hefty amount of group icons to choose from and a slightly bigger PM box, and are able to change their username slightly more often. Other than those three things, they function just like normal members, but are meant to be role models.

Q: How do I become a moderator?

A: Moderators are picked by the staff, just like Trial Moderators. You don't ask to become one.

Q: How come I'm stuck with a Newbie group when there's somebody in the same forum as me with a Member Status? How do I get a Higher group?

A: On SDRPG, we have several different rankings on the forums. Most rankings have multiple rights to choose from. The groups that doesn't have rights are the Newbie. Once you're in the Member group, you are able to See new topics and Some new surprising stuff.~

Q: A Group Ranking?! Sweet! Can you add <insert Pokémon> into the group I'm in for me, Maureen?

A: I can. But I'm not going to. Seriously, I hate it when people ask me things like this. You get what's displayed there. Members have over 4 groups to get from anyway, and that's more than enough far as I'm concerned. You should just be happy you have the damned things in the first place.

Q: This grey and Green is layout is boring me. Don't you have anything else I can stare at?

A: No we don't. Atleast not yet. we are trying to get new Layouts

Q: You should add a skin for <insert thing>, Maureen.

A: No I shouldn't. You should shut the hell up and pick from what's already there. Making this stuff takes a lot of effort and time. I'm more than sure that there's at least one skin you like. Things like this really aggravate me. I'll think up and add new skin themes on my own, I don't need or want help.

Q: When is the skin for <insert type> going to be finished?

A: When it's done. I've got other things to do. I'll announce whenever I've finished a new skin or two.

Q: What's this ban and what is it used for?

A: The ban is what moderators use to keep track of any bans you have received. When you break minor rules multiple times or break a major rule, your ban during rises. When you reach the ban, you are put into the Restricted group. When you reach even more bannings, you are banned from the forum. For every ban we have a limit. Those bans will decrease after the limit. The limit will be given or sent to your e-mail.

Q: It's been over the limit of my ban and I hasn't been taken off of my ban yet! What gives?

A: Moderators manually add and decrease ban. If it's been over the ban limit and you haven't received your decrease yet, you are allowed to PM a moderator about it. Remember that it's important you don't do this stuff anymore.

Q: How come we aren't allowed to make threads for trading?

A: Because this exists.

Q: I keep trying to add a Personal Statement but it won't save, what's wrong?

A: There's some sort of bug in editing your personal portal settings and information through My Controls. Go to your profile and edit it through the Settings tab.

Q: How do I post a picture?

A: First you must have the picture uploaded somewhere onto the internet. You can use Imageshack or Photobucket for image hosting. Take the url of the image and put it between two image tags like this:CODE
